DRAWING WITH TILT
As with pressure, the tablet recognizes when you tilt the pen or airbrush from vertical to inclined positions. In some drawing applications, tilt can be used to control line shape and thickness. This is like working with an airbrush where tilt can be used to make a line thin when the tool is vertical, or wide when the tool is tilted. In other applications, you can adjust tilt to define brush characteristics such as width, color and opacity.
To test tilt, draw a curve in a graphics application (such as Painter) that supports tilt. Be sure that the tilt function in your application is active, then change the tilt of the pen as you draw to vary the shape and thickness of the brush stroke.
As an example, with the Wacom PenTools Virtual Airbrush Photoshop
To adjust how much you must tilt the pen to produce a desired tilt effect in your application, see Customizing Tilt Sensitivity.
